.That Mrs. "A'risht is also exceedingly
popular was made apparent, by 'the ap

President spoke as follows: .
Speech to Segroen.
"General Wright has succeeded In the
Philippines by displaying those qualities
which each of us in a lesser degree must
display," if we are to be good citizens
here at home. There is nothing peculiar
in povernmt-nt. Government consists in
applying the old humdrum, everyday, com
monplace virtues, which all of us learn,
but which all of us do not practice.. If a
man is fearless, is honest, has considera
tion for others," and is gifted with the
crowning grace of common sense, he is
going to do fairly well.
"We all of lis attend to duty or fall
together. If any set of us goes down
the whole nation' sags'a. little; if any of
us raise ourselves a little, then by just
fo much the nation as. a'- whole is raised.
Every man who does markedly good work
in one sphere of government, by just ?o
much helps all of us. and elevates all of
us. It is a great thing when we can point

Badly That n Daniagre.Suit
May Result. •
0., November ID.—(Spe
cial.)— Thomas J. Yore, who for thirteen
years had been chief property man and
assistant stage manager for Richard
Mansfield, is no 'longer connected with
the company. He is nursing- sore spots
and several bumps on his head,- and
says Mansfield is. responsible for them.
Incidentally he has retained attorneys,
and a damagosuit Tor; a large, amount
may be filed against Mansfield unless
there is a compromise.
Yore was with Mansfield up to Monday
night, and it is alleged that at the close
of the tent scene in the fourth act Mans
field, enraged, struck him five times on
the head with something that hurt so
much that Yore thinks it must have been
an instrument harder thati .his hand.
Then Mansfield snatched from his . hand
a heavy roll of parchment, he declares,
and, throwing it at him,- cut. open the
left side of his face and blackened his
eye.
.Yore dodged further punishment, pack
ed up, and left the theatre, and/Mans
field selected someone else to finish his
work. . ■--_■..■

Bishop Duncan last night announced

. paratively few changes. These may oe
ibriefly summarized thus: Rev./ R. H.
: » Bennett, a former pastor of St. James,
! more recently' assistant pastor". of Ep
i worth, Norfolk, becomes presiding elder
; of the Richmond District; 'Rev. J. Pow
! ell Garland,. his predecessor, going to the
eldership of the Portsmouth District. ;
Rev. W. B. Anderson goes to. Hasker
j Memorial, succeeding Rev. R. B. Bca
! dies, who served there two years, and
who now, goes to King and Queen Cir
cuit. - Mr. Anderson Is a new member
cf the conference.
Rev.'A. A. Jones .succeeds Rev. J. E.
Oyier at the Denny-Street church, the
latter going to Burkeville, after one year's
service here, Mr. Jones served East King
and Queen last year.' .
Rev.'' W. A. Cooper succeeds Rev. ■ Jo
seph D. Langley at St. James church,
who retires for a' year from the actlve.list
of the conference after a service at .St.,
James, of one year. Mr. Cooper has
served two years, at Clarksyille.
Dr. Tudor is returned as presiding elder
of the West Richmond District. . But
three changes are maclo in the city .and
suburban pastorates. Rev. R. P. Lump
kin succeeds Rev. W. W. Davis af Ep
worth church, the latter going to King
George" Circuit, after one year's service.
Mr. ' -'Lumpkin served Montross Circuit
last year.
. Rev. J. B. Askew succeeds Rev. E. A.
Potts as pastor of Highland Park church,
after the latter had served there three
years. ,Miv Askew served Trinity Sta
tion, Lynchburg. for the past two years.
Rev. L. C. Mooro. succeeds Rev. Charles
E. Blankenship as pastor of Barton
Heights church, after one year's service,
the latter going to Scottsville. ,Mr. Moore
has served Maioaca Circuit for two years.
Rev. T. S. Leitch, whou.s made field edi
tor'of the Baltimore and Richmond Chris
tian^'Advocate,.served Madison circuit last
year arid is aiwell-knowr, 'young minister
weil equipped for. the. work. •
:Rev. J. .W. , Eure, of this . : city, has as
his first appointment In the conference
Matoaca, near Petersburg.
Rev. J. T: Whitley, ; last, year pastorof
the Centenary; church, Lynchburg,; is one
of the two new presiding elders,. Rev..
Richard H. Bennett being the other. Rev.
D.-G. C. Butts succeeds Mr. Whitley at
Centenary. ' . '*< "- '.
Rev. H. D. Smart, a new-comer to the
coiUCTcnce from one-of the Western con
ferences, recntly transferred, goes to Ep
worth church, Norfolk, the best station
in the conference, perhaps. It has been
understood that he would be sent- there,
but there was much oposltion among the
preachers to the admission of a man from
another conference "for this place. Rev.
A. Coke Smith, D.D., was pastor of;Ep
wortli until- his elevation to the bishopric,
and Rev., Richard A. Bennett has served
as pastor since then, being Dr. Smith's
assistant while the latter was pastor. t
A very much larger number of changes
has been made than was anticipated would
be, these being due to the desires of either
pastors or congregations ot' their mutual
preferences, the health of the- preachers,
01 the exigencies of the ministerial supply
service.
-The list of appointments in full is as

Minister Follows.: Mr.' Mitchell on
the Witness- Stand. _:■:-" , '_
SCRANTON, PA., November 19.— After
being on the stand : for four, and- a half
days, President Mitchell, of the mine; ->'
union, completed " his ■ testimony at noon
to-day before the- Anthracite Coal Com
mission. 'During his ordeal he was ex
amined by his own attorney and theattor
neys of: the Erie Company, the Delaware
and' Hudson, the Delaware, Lackawanna (
and Western, ; the Lehigh Valley, ani tho
Philadelphia and Reading Coal and iron
Company, 'and also by. the attorneys for
the Independent operator". He. wa« follow
ed on the witness stand by Rev. Peter
Roberts, a Congregational minister, who
has studied the anthracite coal industry
and has : written a book on the subject.
He w^s still on the standwhen the com
mission adjourned for the day.
One of the ; mo3t important thing 3
brought out by' the cross-examination of
President Mitchell, was his emphatic.dec
laration that the miners were opposed .to
separating the -bituminous miners.. from
the anthracite workers, thus creating two
organizations.';- He made this reply to a
question from-: ex-Congressman Simon
Wolverton. counsel for the Reading Com
pany, asto whether, it would" not be bet-_
ter to have separate organizations.
: Miners 1 Against Division.
Mr. Mitchells' answer was that it would
not be posaible or desirable. . "The an
thracite mine ..worker have., had inde- |
pendent organizations in the. past. They
have had several. They have gone. They
are not here now and the men do not want
any more of their, organizations to go the
same way." .' ...
Commissioner Wright, as head of the
Department of Labor,' in his : report to
President Roosevelt, on the coal strike,
dated! June 20th, suggested among other
! things as "reasonable and Just,"to pre
vent industrial conflict- in the anthracite
i fields, that" ~ the anthracite employees
should organize an anthracite, coal miners'
union, in- its' autonomy to-be, independent
of the United Mine Workers of-America.
b'ut that might be- affliatevl.with it.i There
had" been some '". eosslp . among "-the jj 'small
army ot c ; attorneys -at the hearings ;that
the r commission^ might : possibly, suggest
t such a ; " separate union,, and 'the fact.that
Mr. ; Wolverton" touched" on 'the matter
shows- that it Is being seriously thought
of : in. -some. quarters. What, effect Mr.
Mitchell's- declaration" wilP have on "the
attitude of the commissioners . if- this
phase of the labor question is taken -up
by them, is, of course, not known.
Non-Unlonists Jladc a Party.
. The non-union men, that is, those "who
remained at \york during, the strike, were
made a party to the arbitration plan to
day, by. their counsel -agreeing to make
public the names of the 'men who petition
ed the commission. When the attorneys
for the non-striking ■ workingmen, as
Chairman Gray designated them, and who
numbered about 2,000, made a . demand to
the commission for a 20 per cent, increase
in -wages, with no reduction in hours, the
attorneys desired to withhold the names
of the persons they represented. .The com
mission,- however, decided it could not bo
a'party to such apian of secrecy. In con
nection with the non-union feature of the
Investigation, Mr. Mitcheil announced that
he is representing thousands of non-union
men, who struck with, the unionists, and
that all the workmen would abide by the
a ward: of the commission, or "get out of
the union."
Mr. Mitchell's testimony to-day con
tained little that was 'new to the commis
sioners, and that of Mr. Robertson was
oi' a general character, regarding the eco
nomic and social conditions in the anthra
cite coal country. The commission, while
regretting they have to do so,; are -still
reminding both sides that they w uld like
to have the submission of testimony ex
pedited. Chairman ; Gray several" times
during the day interrupted, and showed
that the ground then being gone over had
already been covered: It has been sug
gested that counsel for both sides agree on
rules for the submission of evidence, but
nothing has been done toward that end.
The Day's Examination.
At the opening of to-day's "session. Mr.
Mitchell' was -cross-examined briefly by
W. W. Ross, of the Delaware. Lacka
wanna" and Western; /Simon P. Wolver
.ton, for the Philadelphia, Reading, and
James H. Torrey,. representing the Dela
ware and Hudson. ' v. •'"".'. : ' ■
■The individual operators, who up to the
present?time have not pressed their cas«v
before the ■commission."' through one of
their attorneys. 'lra H. Burns, ; of •' Scran-;
xbn. inquired of the commission if.' they^:
would be -given the' opportunity, to-ex
' amlhbywitnesses, : onj questions which ara.
from those concerning the companies
Judge Gray answered that tliey would..?rL
; Mr., Mitchell, -in .reply to Mr. Burns,"

•voluntarily; give up hjs Job; but he strikes j
for/an improvement iin conditions. of
his job. If he wins he gets back" th«»|
position, if he : loses he goes back with
his hat in his hand and asks for a job.

.with respect to the returhinpr to work of
